This is such a beautiful game. Some parts got me really stressed because I never knew what was on the other side of the door, but then scenes like The Rooftop came, and the part where she's leading us around and immediately I felt calm and it was beautiful.
im blown away. this exceeded my expectations ten fold, and i dont really know what to say, but i think this is something really beautiful and i wish more games were like it
Eughh those enormous growths of flesh on the wall were unnerving but other than that this was a beautiful game, pleasantly surprised as I played not knowing what to expect. Looking forward to more projects from io
This game is beautiful! The soundtrack makes it so calming and lovely this would be able to help me go to sleep at night whenever I'm having trouble. Lera's and Nika's design were so creative, and nice to see! Their so calm with each other throughout this game. I love it. Great job!
"I really enjoyed playing this game a lot. I can't really talk about the story here since I don't really understand the full story of it, but what I can say is that the art and the music for this game are great. The art has a pretty unique style to it, and the music is pretty nice to listen to. While yes, the game doesn't really have any jumpscares in it, it still gives me the scare from the atmosphere the game has. It is uncomfortable in a good way."
As someone born and raised in Siberia, this game pretty much encompassed my mindscape from childhood. Bitter sweet visit to my home, tho I remember a lot more school stairs, haha)) Lovely game, thank you for making it <3 Ironic, but I needed it...
Anyway, I really hope to get to know Russian friends and have Russian friends to write emails to. I really want to feel the beauty of architecture expressed by this work through the photos taken on the spot.My email is 2531642604@qq.com ,I will wait until there is an international friend who is willing to contact a Chinese high school student
I was really scared while playing but i really enjoyed everything of the game, the art and music are amazing. The story made me relate Lera and how she sees her future. Thanl you so much for the game
This game has touched me dearly it made me think about everything and it is the most beautiful game I've ever played it had brought me to tears of happiness I hope you keep making master pieces like this Good job
This experience has pierced me to my core. Myself being from the country which this game takes place in (i assume), I have also reminisced numerous times about the past, thinking about how nice and simple it was, feeling protected, content, warm... The story, characters, the environments and the items have reminded me of many things I remember from my own childhood and reflect on my own life, from way back and now. Lera being unable to accept the present, wanting to perish, lost in a physical manifestation of her own happy memories really reminded me of myself at times. Either way, I've had experienced so much just playing through this, so thank you for that.
The game really portrays and desribes the environments and experiences of what once was the countries of the Soviet Union, which makes me wonder, how were you able to recreate it so well? Are you Russian yourself or have you had help? Either way, it's just wonderful.
Whenever I press new game, it shows a loading screen for a second, then it flashes white with an image of something i cant describe, idk. And then it plays audio but the screen remains black... anybody know whats wrong?
what browser and OS are you using? a few people have experienced similar problems in firefox on mac OS, and i unfortunately have been unable to find a fix that works all of the time. i'm sorry for the trouble.
this is... a beautiful game. i'm almost sad to have finished it. the storytelling and visuals are gorgeous and i'm entranced by the themes and the characters. i usually go on itch.io to try and look for diamonds in the rough, and this definitely is one
There's a walkthrough covering the endings, and some short stories that I thought were really good. The last one is so sweet, and if you're looking for a happy, fulfilling ending to Lera and Nika's story, please go read it.
I felt the pain of craving an end to suffering but being terrified of what comes after. The only way you remember happy memories (If you do at all) is through distorted thoughts making the memories a painful thing to remember. And even though I got the true ending I'm going to play again cause I do wonder what would happen if you went down. But I feel like I am Lera and going towards the "exit" would feel like I'm doing it and I don't know how I would feel. This story is truly compelling and amazingly written I mean I got super emotional playing this cause this is so real and so amazing.
Great job making this I hope to play more like this <3
really beautiful and thought provoking game. the atmosphere created within the setting, art, OST, and characters is something special. im glad i played

THIS GAME WAS SO SAD, I GOT TRUE ENDING AND MY SISTER GOT HAPPY ENDING SO WE COMPARED OUR ENDINGS AND THEY ARE BOTH SO SAD
Speechless.
how many endings are there if multiple? I just got the one that said happy ending so I just wanted to check how many there are
edit: I also just got the true end, is there any more?
also holy shit it feels like this game just bashed me over the head
not really sure how to describe that emotion but thats probably an understandable description
hello! what happens in the true end and how do you achieve it? is it when you choose all the rude dialogue options?
how do i get the other endings? i only got the happy one
I GOT THE TRUE END IM SO SAD
these are the only two endionmgs
hey idk if its just my computer but I'm getting a glitch when I enter the apartments where I cant get back out .
I cannot wait to see what Io creates next
This is such a beautiful game. Some parts got me really stressed because I never knew what was on the other side of the door, but then scenes like The Rooftop came, and the part where she's leading us around and immediately I felt calm and it was beautiful.
Amazing job 💖:)
I love it

自己救赎自己的故事。。。。好治愈好感动。。。真希望她们俩能永远在一起。。。也想到了自己以前的事情，玩的时候共鸣真的忍不住哭了。。。这是我玩过氛围感最强的一款游戏了，人物形象设计的很好也很好看，音乐也有一种梦核又一直腐败的温馨的感觉，搭配的真的很到位！！都超级喜欢！！它是我心目中永远的第一名！！！
so gorgeous ;-; no words

Very nostalgic, beautiful and melancholic, as remembrance of the past should be.
its perfect

Атмосферная игра, мне понравилось. Жалко кота Леры только, он наверное от голода умрёт(
What was the background music when nika stood on the rooftop talking to lera? It's beautiful.

感谢作者的作品！！真的非常非常美，这种复古的感觉对于上个世纪受到苏联影响的中国人来说实在是美得让人窒息（当然俄罗斯人应该感触更加深刻？）。很多实况up评价这个作品“精神污染”“致郁”，我个人并不认同。这是一部具有美学价值的，让人印象深刻的温暖的作品。大雪会掩盖发生的一切，无论是温暖，希望，孤独，或者迷茫，最后剩下的只有废弃的混凝土。
我也是这么觉得！！！真的太美了
I'm on a crome book and after making a new game the screen goes black. Audio plays but i can't play.
i love this game ngl
I was really scared while playing but i really enjoyed everything of the game, the art and music are amazing. The story made me relate Lera and how she sees her future. Thanl you so much for the game
im on a mac, and when i press to play, I can play the game but I cant hear any audio
can anyone help me out ?
my mac's audio is working and is on idk what else to do e.e
I really enjoyed your game!
I don't know if you are still accepting translations, but if you want I can translate this game into Portuguese.

I loved the vibes from this game!

Im using Google Chrome on chrome OS, tried it again, same thing happened but now it doesn't show the loading screen at all.

i got stuck in the bath room 1st floor, agh i'll have to restart
For some reason the music wasn't playing for me. Might be a browser problem though since I'm on safari.
Great game though! I love the psychological/alternate reality concept and this game 100% delivered on it.

This game is beatiful. It touched me in so many ways. I cant decribe the feeling... perfect
Dude Lera is so real to me
